1990 TVR S3 – SOLD

1990 TVR S3

What a terrific sports car this is – it looks fantastic, is in great condition and goes like the clappers!!  The car was first registered on 29th June 1990 and has had a number of caring owners who have obviously loved the vehicle, as there is an extremely good and full service history which comes with the car.  Last serviced on 22nd May 2024, it is in tip top mechanical order.  The MOT certificate which has no advisories, runs to 12th April 2025.  The condition of the car is very, very good, with excellent bodywork, well-finished in dark, pearlescent blue – only one minor spider on the bonnet.  The interior, resplendent in cream leather is again, in good condition, including seats, door cards, dashboard and the main carpeting.  The targa top is very good and is easy to remove for open air motoring.  The boot area is carpeted and is in fine order.  The under bonnet area is very clean and tidy as is the underside of the car – the structure is very good indeed.  Driving the car is very exciting with tremendous power from the 2.9 litre Ford engine which is mated to a Ford 5-speed gearbox.  The acceleration is phenomenal and the road-holding is superb.  Excellent TVR alloys with matching nearly new tyres (only 250 miles).  Only 88,000 miles in 34 years.  This car is extremely quick and the driving experience is enhanced by the fabulous V6 sound.  Paperwork includes lots of old MOT certificates, invoices, service records, workshop manual, handbook and V5C.

1965 MGB Roadster with Overdrive – SOLD

1965 MGB Roadster with Overdrive

This is a lovely old MGB Roadster which has been in the same ownership for the last twelve years.  Prior to this period of ownership, the car was extensively restored and is still in very good condition.  The structure and the bodywork are excellent, and it is well finished in the popular MG colour, Tartan Red, with wire wheels.  The body panels fit well, including the doors, and it has good sills, castle sections, wings etc.  The interior retains its original leather seats, and new red carpets were fitted at the time of restoration.  The dashboard is in good condition.  The hood has obviously been renewed at some stage, but has not been used much – it is in nice condition with clear back window and is a good fit.  A road test confirms that the car runs very well with plenty of power, good handling,  smooth gearbox and properly working overdrive.  Comes with some paperwork, including old invoices, workshop manual, original handbook, V5C and MOT certificate to February 2025.  An all-round good car, well worth the money.

1978 MGB Roadster with Overdrive – SOLD

1978 MGB Roadster with Overdrive

Resplendent in its Inca Yellow coachwork, this MGB has been kept up to scratch, including a body rebuild by a previous owner, with new sills etc.  It was repainted last year, so the paintwork is good and the black interior is also in good order.  The hood fits well and has hardly been used, and there is a full tonneau, again, in good order.  The car was Ziebarted from new, which has obviously helped to maintain the structural condition.  The engine runs well and the car drives as it should, with a nice, 4-speed gearbox with the benefit of overdrive.  Excellent matching Uniroyal tyres on original Rostyle wheels with stainless steel embellishers.  Paperwork includes MOT to June 2025, V5C, some old MOT certificates, workshop manual and handbook.

1949 MG TC – SOLD

1949 MG TC

We are very pleased to offer for sale, on behalf of a good customer, this terrific example of the ever-popular MG TC.  We can tell you that Ruby, as she is affectionately known, is an absolute delight to drive, having just collected her yesterday and driven her some 12 miles back to our garage.  The car was restored in 2019 to an excellent standard, including full body strip down and paint, new upholstery and overhaul of all mechanics including the fitting of a slightly tuned XPAG engine by George Edney MHG.  Modifications to the engine include fast road cam, balanced fly-wheel, Arolight pistons, modified cam followers, and reboring of the block to 1346cc – the result is much improved power.  The gearbox was fully rebuilt at the same time.   On the road, this 1346cc car behaves very well and has been fitted with the well-known modification of a VW steering box, which greatly improves the steering – and we now go along in a straight line!!  The car sits on four nearly-new Blockley tyres on excellent wire wheels.  As you can see from the photographs, the car has been fitted with telescopic dampers – an after-market modification.  The overall condition is very good indeed, with excellent paintwork, unmarked interior, good canvas hood and side screens (hardly used) and a very clean and tidy underside.  Comes with V5C and large file of paperwork including receipts, old MOTs etc.

1939 MG TA – SOLD

1939 MG TA

A lovely old MG TA which has been in the same family for some 29 years, during which the car has been well maintained.  The car was extensively restored by a previous owner, which we think included a new body tub, a repaint, new upholstery and an overhaul of the mechanics.  Two very good modifications have been made to the car, namely, the fitting of a transverse friction shocker at the rear and more recently, the vast improvement of the steering by changing the steering box to a more modern one (not VW as normal – we will tell you what it is if you buy the car!!).  The result of all of this is that the car drives better than any other TA we have ever driven.  There is an invoice in the file from 2017 for an overhaul of the engine, and a new clutch was fitted in 2021, together with a service of the braking system.  The paintwork is generally in good condition with some aging as you would expect, the upholstery is good with nice oxblood-coloured seating and black carpets – the latter of which are a little worn.  The PVC hood is in pretty good condition, as is the tonneau cover;  the four side-screens are in need of a revamp.  The underside is nice and sound.  The five wire wheels are all nicely stove enamelled.  Driving the car is a pleasure – plenty of power, easy gearbox and clutch and as already mentioned above, very good steering.  The car is priced to reflect that it would benefit from a full service, and that a few jobs need attending to – nothing major.  Comes with V5C, two old log books, a buff continuation book from 1957, and old MOT certificates dating back to 1986.

1985 Citroen 2CV Dolly – SOLD

1985 Citroen 2CV Dolly

We have sold a few Citroen 2CVs over the years and must say, this is the best we have ever seen.  It was restored to exacting standards between 2018 and 2021 from an abandoned ‘field find’.  The extensive restoration, which included many, many parts – too many to list – resulted in a better-than-new car and it has been well maintained by its current owner, who has a wealth of experience with these cars.  Everything about the car has been well done, including the first class, original specification paint job in its original and quite rare red and grey.  The interior and folding canvas roof are both like new, and the boot and engine bay again, are in lovely condition.  The underside, including its new galvanised chassis and fully restored mechanics is of course, very good and the engine itself, which again, was fully rebuilt, runs like a sewing machine, giving plenty of power for the car to run along in modern traffic.  The gearbox, which came from a Citroen Ami (apparently a stronger box than the original) has been rebuilt and fitted.  Other major items included new braking system, exhaust, clutch, shockers, tyres, ignition … the list goes on.  Driving the car is great fun and the unusually-positioned Citroen gear lever is a joy to use.  There is bags of space in this car for all the family and a good-sized luggage – to boot!!  Comes with MOT to August 2025 with no advisories, V5C, workshop manual, handbook, USB memory stick detailing the restoration, and we also have a copy of the 2CV GB News monthly magazine from October 2021 featuring an 8-page article covering the rebuild.
